[QUOTE="Chris F, post: 3856122, member: 5328"] [SIZE=6][B]New fertiliser legislation comes into force January 2018 – is your business prepared?[/B][/SIZE] ADAS stand (906) The draft fertiliser regulations, which were first published in April 2016, have now gone through a review process. The proposed fertiliser regulations will apply to CE marked fertilising products including fertilisers, soil modifiers, bio-stimulants and crop nutrients and will come into force on 1 January, 2018. Changes to the original draft include an increase in the scope of the regulation (including new definitions for agronomic additives and denitrification inhibitors) and a reduction in time scales for retaining data from 10 years to 5 years. The Regulation: Main Points [LIST] [*]The Regulation will apply to CE marked fertilising products, covering fertilisers, soil modifiers, biostimulants, crop nutrients, etc. 50% of fertilisers are outside the scope of the current legislation because organic fertilisers are excluded. [*]There will be a requirement to measure heavy metal content with specific limits for certain metals such as Cadmium. [*]To be placed on the market, CE marking will be required according to 765/2008 EC. [*]Product efficacy will need to be supported by evidence. [*]REACH registrations are required for certain constituents. In exceptional circumstances, for tonnages [*]<10 tonnes per company per year, the information requirements for quantities of 10 – 100 tonnes may apply. [*]Where import is involved, the importer of products is responsible for ensuring compliance with the regulation. [*]There will be a requirement to notify authorities and assessment bodies. [*]Companies can appoint an authorised representative to comply with the regulations on their behalf. [/LIST] To find out more about the changes and what affect they will have on your business visit the ADAS stand (906) at Grassland & Muck or contact [EMAIL]Peter.Godfrey@cea-res.co.uk[/EMAIL]. CEA and ADAS provide support so you can meet the requirements of the new fertiliser regulation. We have the expertise and competence in the efficacy and efficiency testing of fertilisers and biostimulants, and offer a complete service to satisfy the REACH and other regulatory requirements for human and environmental safety.
